Originally a private residence, picturesque The Guenther House Museum now serves as a restaurant, store, and museum dedicated to Carl Hilmar (C.H.) Guenther, the founder of a local wheat and corn operation. Inscribed on the National Register of Historic Places, the house celebrates Guenther's life, his immigration from Germany to the U.S., and his skills as a trained millwright, cabinetmaker, and stonemason. The original furniture is preserved, and the residence is available for touring. The restaurant is a popular brunch spot, serving hearty meals on the sunny terrace.

  I enjoy coming to The Guenther House. It's more for the atmosphere than the food. The food isn't special but I've liked what I've had so far. The service is really good, coffee and waters are never empty here. Be prepared for the wait though. I've never been seated right away even with a reservation.

  Historic Guenther House is great for breakfast, the biscuits are a must have. They have outdoor dining, along with heaters and blankets if you get cool. A little museum inside with a store. The location is in a beautiful area of San Antonio, the King Williams District. Historic flour mill is part of the property. A nice experience.
